How many people measure their bath temperature this accurately? Apparently it must be between 100.6F and 102F!

******** - my sauna bath runs at 110C.

It is not possible to heat water above 100C at normal atmospheric
pressure on this planet.


It is the AIR that is at 110C - chucking water on the stones actually cools the room for a while, but it feels hotter due to increased humidity as in Turkish baths.



Ah right, I misread the earlier post and assumes bath to refer to a tub
of water. Surely most people refer to it just as "a sauna" or maybe
sauna room?
